    Think she could win it, would be surprised if it wasn't the winner of her semi against Radaswanksa.

    Andy Murray goes into Wimbledon's semi-final against Jerzy Janowicz boosted by rousing "gold dust" advice from Sir Alex Ferguson.

    Wonder if old sourpuss will give him a rocket if he misses the net?


    Or should that be if he hits the net?

    He probably gave him the hairdryer treatment for the first two sets of his match against Verdasco.

    Djokovic v Del Potro 5 sets, still not got a clue who will win, helps Murray out as long as he doesn't do a 5 setter or lose.

    Djokovic beats Del Potro to make final.

    Longest semi-final in Wimbledon history as Djokovic wins in 4 hours 44 minutes.

    Yes but he will probably have to play better to win against Djokovic.

    Murray 1-1 Djokovic *

    Murray, his back to the rammed Royal Box, motions for a pair of balls from the ball-girl, rotates them in his palm, tosses one away and prepares to serve. Very solid start - Djoko forced wide with a backhand, an ace down the middle, and he's on the board. Blisteringly hot out there, a day for peeling noses and the emergence of freckles you never knew you owned. Ouch.
